Geopropolis is a mixture of plant resins, waxes, and soil produced by the stingless bee Melipona fasciculata Smith. This paper describes the antioxidant activity and chemical composition of geopropolis produced by M. fasciculata. The total phenolic content determined with the Folin-Ciocalteu reagent was highest in the ethyl acetate fraction and hydroalcoholic extract. Antioxidant activity was assayed by the in vitro DPPH, ABTS, and FRAP assays. The hydroalcoholic extract and fractions of geopropolis, except for the hexane fraction, exhibited antioxidant activity against DPPH, ABTS, and FRAP. The phenolic compounds were identified by HPLC-DAD-MS on the basis of the evaluation of their UV-vis absorption maxima (λmax) and mass spectral analysis. Eleven compounds belonging to the classes of phenolic acids and hydrolyzable tannins (gallotannins and ellagitannins) were tentatively identified. These compounds are responsible for the antioxidant activity and high phenolic content of geopropolis produced by M. fasciculata.
蜂胶是由无刺蜜蜂(Melipona fasciculata Smith)分泌的植物树脂、蜡和土壤的混合物。本文描述了由 M. fasciculata 产生的蜂胶的抗氧化活性和化学成分。用福林-考尔法试剂测定的总酚含量在乙酸乙酯部分和水醇提取物中最高。通过体外 DPPH、ABTS 和 FRAP 测定法测定抗氧化活性。水醇提取物和除正己烷部分以外的蜂胶部分对 DPPH、ABTS 和 FRAP 均具有抗氧化活性。根据 UV-vis 吸收最大值 (λmax) 和质谱分析评估,通过 HPLC-DAD-MS 鉴定了酚类化合物。暂定鉴定了 11 种属于酚酸和可水解单宁(鞣花单宁和没食子单宁)类的化合物。这些化合物是 M. fasciculata 产生的蜂胶具有抗氧化活性和高酚含量的原因。
